Everyone knows how important the brain is. It is responsible for the directing the entire operation of the human body. Yet, how many of us know how to consistently live a lifestyle that betters the health of our brain? With cognitive decline being highlighted in our society with the meteoric rise of Alzheimer’s and dementia, it is time for us to take a serious look at how we can improve brain health, especially as we age.
For years science has thought that there was no way to halt the death of brain cells that control our aging process. But recent discoveries in neuroscience has actually showed that we can grow new brain cells (neurogenesis) at ANY point in our lives. When the rate of neurogenesis is low, that’s when we experience memory loss, cognitive deficits, anxiety, stress, depression and lowered immunity. With high rates of neurogenesis, we flourish and demonstrate rapid learning, mental acuity, emotional resiliency, robust health and much more.
